Once serving as the office of the renowned gardener and horticulturist Percy Thrower, River Dell is an impressive family home offering more than 3,500 square feet of attractive accommodation. The living space is arranged across the first and second floors, allowing for splendid views across the parkland river, while inside there are well-presented reception rooms with neutral décor and plenty of natural light.

The main reception room is the well-proportioned drawing room, which has wooden flooring, a fireplace with a woodburning stove and a dual aspect, including French doors opening to an outside dining area. Double doors connect the drawing room to the formal dining room and adjoining kitchen, which are connected in a semi open-plan layout, with both offering sliding glass doors to balcony seating areas with west-facing views across The Dingle. The kitchen is fitted with modern units to base and wall level, as well as integrated appliances and a range cooker.

Also on the first floor is a comfortable sitting room and a private study for home working, as well as a shower room. Stairs lead to the upper level, where there are six well-presented bedrooms. These include the principal bedroom with its built-in storage, walk-in wardrobe and an en suite shower room. The first floor also has a family bathroom with an over-bath shower. The ground level offers further accommodation including a useful utility room for home storage and appliances, as well as a garden room in which to relax, with a door opening directly to the garden.
